''The Sacrifice of Education to Examination: Letters from All Sorts and Conditions of Men'' is a book written by Auberon Herbert and published in 1889. The book is a collection of letters written by various individuals from different backgrounds and professions, all expressing their concerns and criticisms about the state of education in England during the late 19th century.The letters touch on various issues related to education, including the overemphasis on examinations and rote learning, the neglect of practical skills and creativity, and the lack of attention given to the individual needs and interests of students. The writers argue that this approach to education is detrimental to the development of young minds and ultimately undermines the true purpose of education.The book is a powerful critique of the prevailing educational system of the time and advocates for a more holistic approach to learning that values individuality, creativity, and practical skills. It also highlights the importance of education in shaping the future of society and the need for reform to ensure that it serves the best interests of all students.Overall, ''The Sacrifice of Education to Examination'' is a thought-provoking and insightful read that remains relevant to this day as we continue to grapple with the challenges of providing quality education to all.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
